A2 TECATE...anyone done USD forks and newer rear shock swap?

[ironchop]

looking for info from anyone who`s updated their T3 with new(er) upside downs and/or a newer rear shock.

I`m about to start gathering parts for my T3 build and want something with a little more performance for suspension but looking to keep my current frame with some gussets added...I did a forum search but came up with nothing.

It's been so long since I did it, I can't remember for sure if it was the Raptor or the Banshee shock that's almost a direct bolt in. I think it was the Banshee. As for the forks, I got nothing.

I forgot all about the Tecate interchange thread.....now that you mention it wasn`t there a post in there about what rear shock swap works? (rhetorical...I`ll go look)

Thanks Fabio.

Raptor 660 shocks work pretty well in the T3's

Yup, it's in the interchange thread. That shock is a huge improvement, I loved it.
